Inspiration-
Inspired by one of the 20th century’s most influential voices in literature and environmentalism,
Rachel Carson. A visionary marine biologist, conservationist and author, she revolutionised the
environmental movement with her compelling work.
Carson’s eloquent writing combined scientific rigour with a deep sense of wonder for the
environment, making her a powerful advocate for conservation. Carson’s legacy endures as a
champion of ecological awareness, sparking the modern environmental movement and
inspiring ongoing action to protect the planet.
Best known for her groundbreaking sea trilogy—Under the Sea-Wind (1941), The Sea Around Us
(1951), and The Edge of the Sea (1955)—Carson illuminated the intricate beauty and balance of
marine ecosystems. Her vivid storytelling deepened our understanding of the ocean and helped
lay the foundation for a new era of the modern environmental movement, inspiring a generation
of future conservationists.
